Try It Tuesday

Sorry I was a little lame yesterday and didn’t post anything. I’ve made up for it today though! If you follow me on Pinterest, you know my Try It Tuesday board is FULL of yummy recipes (most of which, I have yet to try). So, I thought I’d try one today!

The one that sounded most tasty (and that I already had all the ingredients for) was this gem:

Nom, nom, nom.

So, I gathered my schtuff:

Look! Only 7 ingredients! And 7 healthy ingredients at that!

I was excited because the recipe called for 1 cup shredded apple (aka, 1 medium apple). I thought: Hey! I’ll use my new slicer/shredder I got for Christmas! Yeah…I really should’ve waited until Huff the Hubs came home so I would’ve had adult supervision.

Needless to say, I just chopped up the apples and diced them as small as I could. (I would’ve used a cheese grater but we don’t have one. And yet we have two sets of Star Trek glasses. Go figure.)

I mixed up all the ingredients and the contents of my bowl looked like this:

What’s that intoxicating aroma?

I greased a pan (which I later learned was way too big. The recipe called for a 9×9 pan. I had to use an 8×8) and popped it into the pre-heated oven at 350. And bee tee dub, it was smelling AWESOME.

Twenty minutes later, I had this:

Take that, Fiber One bars!

I cheated and didn’t wait til it was cooled to try it. It was pretty good! I couldn’t really taste the apple though. I think next time I might use bananas instead and add some dark chocolate chips!
